Chapter 151: Chapter 5: Immortal Realm Missionary (Part 5)

Li Shuning concealed her identity and quickly arrived at the borderlands between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm.

Although she was already close to the battlefield, there were many residences at this edge, even forming a small city.

As soon as Li Shuning arrived here, she found an inn and settled down.

The inn’s rates were quite expensive. However, arrays were set around the inn; upon casual inspection, Li Shuning noticed these arrays were effective at repelling the Demonic Qi from the Demon Realm.

At this borderland, if one were outdoors, one might be killed in their sleep by the Demon Clan without even knowing. But it was different in the inn; at least one could rest well without worrying about being killed while asleep by the Demon Clan.

Li Shuning clearly felt that this place was somewhat different from the Immortal Realm.

Who established these shops and inns here?

Do these establishments have any vested interests with the Immortal Realm’s side?

Recalling the plot, Ling Yun’s arrogance and tyranny, Ling Tian’s various behaviors, Li Shuning seemed to have grasped something.

Li Shuning shook her head, having traveled for so long, she needed some rest before entering the battlefield.

After all, the reason for coming here was to enhance her strength.

The next day, Li Shuning went to the battlefield.

On the battlefield, she formed a small team with some other immortals. In this place, Li Shuning altered her appearance, so most would not recognize her true face.

It must be known that this disguise spell was personally crafted by Yun Zimo; unless someone possessed greater power than him could they see through Li Shuning’s disguise.

And such people did not exist in either the Immortal Realm or the Demon Realm.

Although Li Shuning’s cooperation was somewhat crude, her strength and survival tactics were impressive, and soon the others accepted her.

While battling the Demon Clan, Li Shuning learned some insights from them.

The small city at the Immortal Realm’s borderland only appeared in the last century.

When she first arrived, entering the small city was free, but accommodations or food naturally required Immortal Crystals.

Upon leaving the small city and entering the battlefield, each return required a fee of ten Immortal Crystals.

If one wanted accommodations again, there were additional fees.

Li Shuning was aware that the Immortal Realm had allocations of resources delivered there, so where did those resources go?

Curious, Li Shuning asked, causing their expressions to turn odd. As they did not speak, Li Shuning refrained from further queries to avoid suspicion.

Later, they secretly observed Li Shuning, noticing her strong team spirit and decent behavior, neither shrinking in battles nor holding them back.

Unknown to the immortals, the distribution onto the battlefield was conducted purposefully.

Given the Immortal Demon Battlefield was divided into safe and dangerous areas.

Those with connections and networking were allocated to safer places, leaving those without backgrounds or Immortal Crystals to be resigned to dangerous territories.

The originally distributed resources by the Immortal Realm were controlled by some people.

They received only a third of the original quota; if insufficient, they could only rely on luck or prove themselves on the battlefield.

Only after Li Shuning was wholly integrated into the group was she quietly told about this.

Li Shuning was greatly shocked.

The importance of the Immortal Demon Battlefield should not be overlooked, as any slip would torment the entire Immortal Realm.

Someone was really daring enough to engage in trickery over this?

Was it Ling Tian?

Allocating immortals to the Immortal Demon Battlefield usually fell under Ling Tian’s purview.

Li Shuning couldn’t help but recall within the plot, knowing she was headed to the Immortal Demon Battlefield, Ling Yun could even leak information to the Demon Clan; what did this imply?

Li Shuning gasped quietly, hoping that her assumptions were not accurate.

Keeping her composure, Li Shuning turned serious.

Upon encountering other teams, at times, she would inquire for additional information.

Though the Immortal Demon Battlefield had small teams, there were always times for rest.

Returning to the small city to recover, Li Shuning witnessed more.

Originally here to repel the Demon Clan, risking lives all to secure peace for the Immortal Realm.

Yet within this small city, everything was dictated by Immortal Crystals.

Damaged weapons needing repair? Immortal Crystals required.

Severe injuries needing healing? Immortal Crystals required.

Whatever one wished to do, always needed Immortal Crystals.

Those becoming immortals naturally had some reserves.

Arriving here, there was no choice. To accomplish anything, Immortal Crystals had to be spent.

Immortal Crystals are essential for daily cultivation for any immortal.

How dared they? Wouldn’t they fear these immortals reporting them upon returning to the Immortal Realm?

Li Shuning quietly consulted someone from her team who had stayed longest on the Immortal Demon Battlefield; this person enjoyed mentoring juniors. Upon hearing Li Shuning’s careful complaints, saying why nobody in the small city feared, the person’s face turned solemn.

That person specially sought Li Shuning for a deep conversation.

"Su Ning, whatever you’ve seen on this battlefield, once you return, remember not to speak of it. If you mention anything or report to an Immortal Monarch, consequences would be dire; as a mere immortal, you cannot defeat them."

Li Shuning couldn’t help but ask, "They’re unafraid, could they really conceal the truth entirely? Aren’t there disciples or protégés from the Immortal Venerable visiting the battlefield regularly? If they inform the Immortal Venerable..."

The person shook their head: "Silly girl, you are too naive. This small city managed to establish here and has existed many years; backing them already has meticulous preparations."

"Once, Gu Ze Immortal Monarch discovered corruption, returned intending to report to the Immortal Venerable, but mysteriously vanished; later, the investigating Immortal Monarch concluded he was ambushed by the Demon Clan and perished. Our low power, girl, don’t think unrealistic things. Survive steadily on this battlefield, gradually enhancing strength, then return to the Immortal Realm and live well."

Li Shuning felt a sense of melancholy; these people had grown accustomed to such times, and were already fearful.

Subsequently, Li Shuning became more agreeable, no longer asking incessantly, focusing on combating the Demon Clan and cultivating diligently.

Members of the team sighed in relief.

This little girl was favorable, had she remained obsessed and pursued those matters, the team might have had to part from her to avoid burdens.

It was good that the little girl came to understand herself.

Previously thinking only the Mortal World involved deceit and interests, upon ascending, those would vanish; unexpectedly, the Immortal Realm was a mere mirror of the Mortal World.

In the Immortal Realm, without certain strength or background, progress was difficult.
